LONDON -- Keith Richards has admitted to a lot of drug use, but the way he honored his father tops them all: He snorted him.

Richards told the British music magazine NME that he snorted his father's ashes mixed with cocaine.

The Rolling Stones guitarist's father, Bert, died in 2002 and was cremated.
Richards said that he couldn't resist "grinding him up with a little bit of blow." He said his dad would not have cared.

Richards said it "went down pretty well" and he's still alive.
